Long Lecture
On occasion, I have to sit through these “distinguished” lecture series’ at school. It’s a total bunch of crap. They pay some person a ton of money to come and speak about something no one really cares about and then they tell us that we have to go to get credit for class. The only reason we have to go is so that they don’t look stupid when no one shows up because the lecture is meaningless. They want the speaker to have the false knowledge that people at Penn actually care about their topics. Ugh. Drives me crazy. So I sat in the lecture for 3 straight hours. Thank god for my fancy phone and solitaire and text messages and the ability to surf the Internet on it. I have a renewed love for it this morning because it kept me somewhat sane during my lecture. I would have had a hard time staying awake for anything after the long day of work I had.
